this sucks

  -algorithm string
        one of: sha1, sha2-256, sha2-512, sha3 (default "sha2-256")
  -c string

  -check string

  -encoding string
        one of: raw, hex, base58, base64 (default "base58")
  -l int
        checksums length in bits (truncate). -1 is default (shorthand) (default -1)
